Search History not loading on one node

I've currently got an issue where my search history wont load on one particular search head. As far as I know, it's only affecting me. Our search heads are clustered, and it's only affecting 1 of the 3 nodes, we're currently on 9.3. When I try to load the search history it just says "Waiting for results...".

I can work around it, but it bothers me that it's something that's not working and I've not yet been able to solve.

Things I've tried:

  • Different browser of course.
  • Cluster status shows as being up to date and replication being A-OK.
  • Compared my KVStore across all three nodes and they appear identical.
  • Checked log files but I can't see anything obvious.

Most of the troubleshooting help I've found online all seems to assume you're using a single search head.

Looking for some inspiration on what to try next!
